What do I do? Just got told I am getting a promotion at my current job in an agency but also got an offer to work in house marketing for a company. It’s WAY more $ than what I currently make. I signed the offer letter & did all the paperwork but just have a drug test to retake because the first one was diluted since I drank so much water before (my mistake-not on drugs tho lol). Starting in 2 weeks. Should I resign from the current job now & give proper notice or wait for the drug test results?

Wait until the drug test results come in and you have a signed offer.

This is a joke right? Why would you be taking a drug test for a marketing job?

it’s so annoying I know but yea it’s because of the nature of the company unfortunately. I think its unnecessary but hey for the amount they are willing to pay me I will deal with the annoyance! LOL

Some of my loved ones say to just wait for the drug test results to really ensure everything is ready for the new job and tell my job next week I am putting in my notice in and that I can stay for the full two weeks and work during my first week of the other job if needed (both jobs are remote). I doubt they will actually want me the second week because luckily this month is not busy at all as it seems we may lose this account or have way less budget for it soon. I already pushed my start date back with the new job so I don’t feel comfortable asking for another start date. I know I am definitely overthinking this but this is the first time I am having to resign HAHA
